SP323 Introduction to Translation

3 credit(s)
This course is designed to introduce students to the history, theory, and practice of the art of Translation and Interpretation, while simultaneously accounting for the differences and/or similarities between these two terms.  As a student, you will acquire the fundamentals of translating from both Spanish to English and from English to Spanish by interacting with a variety of materials in the Source Language (SL) that will be calculated to recreate appropriate equivalences in the Target Language (TL).  We will try to convert as many different kinds of sources as possible with the objective of immersing ourselves into the vast, multi-dimensional world of language, communication, and translatable texts.  Some of these material will include newspaper and magazine articles, scenes from a movie, literary works, interviews, advertisements/commercials, formal documents, and, among others, song lyrics. Prerequisite:  SP202  or permission of instructor
